- 25. CEE320 Winter2006 Example 1 A car is traveling at 30 mph in the country at night on a wet road through a 150 ft. long sag vertical curve. The entering grade is -2.4 percent and the exiting grade is 4.0 percent. A tree has fallen across the road at approximately the PVT.

Notes de l'éditeur
- Therefore, roads will almost always be a bit longer than their stationing because of the vertical alignment Draw in stationing on each of these curves and explain it
- Typical set of road plans – one page only
- 400 ft. vertical curve, therefore: PVI is at STA 102+00 and PVT is at STA 104+00 Elevation of the PVI is 59’ + 0.02(200) = 63 ft. Elevation of the PVT is 63’ – 0.045(200) = 54 ft. High point elevation requires figuring out the equation for a vertical curve At x = 0, y = c =&gt; c=59 ft. At x = 0, dY/dx = b = G1 = +2.0% a = (G2 – G1)/2L = (-4.5 – 2)/(2(4)) = - 0.8125 y = -0.8125x2 + 2x + 59 High point is where dy/dx = 0 dy/dx = -1.625x + 2 = 0 x = 1.23 stations Find elevation at x = 1.23 stations y = -0.8125(1.23)2 + 2(1.23) + 59 y = 60.23 ft
- Last slide we found x = 1.23 stations
- G is in percent, x is in feet G is in decimal, x is in stations
- Minimum lengths are about 100 to 300 ft. Another way to get min length is 3 x (design speed in mph)
- What can you do if you need a shorter sag vertical curve than calculated? Provide fixed-source street lighting Minimum lengths are about 100 to 300 ft. Another way to get min length is 3 x design speed in mph
- Assume that S&gt;L (it usually is not but for example we’ll do it this way), therefore S = 146.23 ft. which is less than L Must use S&lt;L equation, it’s a quadratic with roots of 146.17 ft and -64.14 ft. The driver will see the tree when it is 146.17 feet in front of her. Available SSD is 146.17 ft. Required SSD = (1.47 x 30)2/2(32.2)(0.35 + 0) + 2.5(1.47 x 30) = 196.53 ft. Therefore, she’s not going to stop in time. OR L/A = K = 150/6.4 = 23.43, which is less than the required K of 37 for a 30 mph design speed Stopping sight distance on level ground at 30 mph is approximately 200 ft.
- Assume that S&gt;L (it usually is), therefore SSD = 243.59 ft. which is greater than L The driver will see the tree when it is 243.59 feet in front of her. Available SSD = 243.59 ft. Required SSD = (1.47 x 30)2/2(32.2)(0.35 + 0) + 2.5(1.47 x 30) = 196.53 ft. Therefore, she will be able to stop in time. OR L/A = K = 150/6.4 = 23.43, which is greater than the required K of 19 for a 30 mph design speed on a crest vertical curve Stopping sight distance on level ground at 30 mph is approximately 200 ft.
- For 45 mph we get K=61, therefore L = KA = (61)(5.2) = 317.2 ft.
- Trinity Road between Sonoma and Napa valleys
- D = degree of curvature (angle subtended by a 100’ arc)
- Since we know R and T we can use T = Rtan(delta/2) to get delta = 29.86 degrees D = 5729.6/R. Therefore D = 3.82 L = 100(delta)/D = 100(29.86)/3.82 = 781 ft. PC = PT – PI = 2000 – 781 = 12+18.2 PI = PC +T = 12+18.2 + 400 = 16+18.2. Note: cannot find PI by subtracting T from PT!
- Divide both sides by Wcos(α) Assume fse is small and can be neglected – it is the normal component of centripetal acceleration
- The maximum side friction factor is the point at which the tires begin to skid Design values of fs are chosen somewhat below this maximum value so there is a margin of safety
- There is a different curve for each superelevation rate, this one is for 8%
- For the minimum curve radius we want the maximum superelevation rate. WSDOT max e = 0.10 For 70 mph, WSDOT f = 0.10 Rv = V2/g(fs+e) = (70 x 1.47)2/32.2(0.10 + 0.10) = 1644.16 ft. This is the radius to the center of the inside lane. Depending upon the number of lanes and perhaps a center divider, the actual centerline radius will be different.
- Basically it’s figuring out L and M from the normal equations
- Can also rotate about inside/outside axis
- Ease driver into the curve Think of how the steering wheel works, it’s a change from zero angle to the angle of the turn in a finite amount of time This can result in lane wander Often make lanes bigger in turns to accommodate for this
